Flower boys

I hope you all had a nice Easter.
I did get a lot of cards done, here's one inspired by the sketch over at Allsorts this week.

The only thing stamped here - heat embossed in white - is the sentiment. The bottom layer is an embossed paper which I covered with gelato and some mists. I used 3 different DPs. I used a die cut tree border, lace and flowers from my stash.

This card is for:
Allsorts - #410 Sketch

Crafty Creations - #339 Always Anything Goes 
Path of Positivity - #48 The Beauty of Nature

  3. Love this sweet topper, and what memories it would bring back for the right guy. The neutral shades of the other elements on this card work so nicely with the colors of the vintage image, and I like the suggestion of texture on the partial oval behind the image too. So many pretty layers and patterns. TFS 7 Hugs

  8. Fab image for your card, I have a lot of similar, and wish use them, but they are too much big for cards. Love the design, a bit vintage and lovely earth tones! Your card is so sweet and the embossed panel looks fabulous with the faux juta dp of the oval and the large lace!
    Hope you have enjoyed your Easter holidays
    Hugs

    I'm sorry I haven't been around much lately. Life went a little crazy these last couple of months, in a good way :-), but there just weren't enough hours in a day for me to get to do everything I wanted to. Going around catching up now. Thank you so much for all the lovely comments you have left on my blog. I appreciate each and every one of them.
    Have a wonderful day.
    Hugs,
